TRIZ Journal's November Issue

The November Issue of The TRIZ Journal features three unique additions to the community: one expands our diverse reach into the 40 Principles for industries and the other two focus on how TRIZ can play a significant role in business.

We are also excited to announce a collaboration effort between The TRIZ Journal and the Altshuller Institute. We are working together on many fronts to create new and engaging additions for the TRIZ community, whether you are a seasoned expert or just getting your feet wet.

November marks six months since BMGI took over the journal! We have learned a lot in these first months. However, we would love to hear your feedback. Below is a link to the readership survey. The more we hear from you, the more we can forge the right path going forward. Thank you for your support!

If you would like to submit an article or have thoughts on how to improve the issues, please contact me at Derek.Bennington@BMGI.com. I look forward to connecting with each of you personally via email or LinkedIn.

I also want to encourage you, regardless of your experience level, to join The TRIZ Journal Linkedin Group. While we’re just getting started, we hope for this to become an active group for all things TRIZ-related.

Thank you for your dedicated support of the journal. We are excited for what the future holds!
